Description
Two women born to rule, struggle for the survival of their people…
A drought is bleeding the Twelve Territories dry, forcing Empress Verrilly to fend off the attacks of her starving people, yet unable to do anything to alleviate their suffering. Her favourite, Lord Olkar, compels her to bend to the superstitions of her people and eradicate those they believe are to blame – the ghost-like Eterna race. But the more they hunt the Eterna down the worse the drought becomes, until Verrilly begins to suspect that her favourite harbours secrets that may be more dangerous to her empire than the Eterna themselves.
Hunted to near-extinction, the last surviving Eterna can only run for their lives. Their leader Ciaragh tries vainly to guide her people to safety, but one-by-one they are captured and their lives crushed without mercy, leaving her alone in a world gone mad. As sorrow grips her heart and rips through her soul, Ciaragh cries into the night, unaware of the elemental powers she has unleashed. For buried within her is an ancient magic that could save the empire from a slow death and redeem the souls of her loved ones, but only if she lives long enough to discover it.
Readers’ Favourite Review:
"Cry of the Elemental by Nicole Trewartha is a very strong novel. The start of the book was enough to hold me to the entire story, a strong beginning that just got better as the story unravelled. This was a page-turner that I couldn't put down, one that gripped all the way through. There is more to this story than meets the eye though. As well as being a fantasy novel, there are undercurrents of real life there, stories of the destruction of the world as we know it. This is one of the best debut novels I have ever read, very well written, and with excellent character development. The story evolves naturally and in a powerful way, culminating in an ending that was as strong as the start. Excellent book; I will be looking for other books by Nicole Trewartha, who is definitely an author well worth watching." Reviewed by Ann-Marie Reynolds from Readers' Favourite - 5 Stars!
